Round Robin Service Quilt

Well my round for this service quilt is done.

I think my design works -- it looks like one, more more or less unified quilt top -- but I am afraid the quilt is a bit off kilter/wonky. You can see the warble in the fabric as it hangs. The problem is a bit exacerbated by the fact that I don't have it hung quite straight and it is laying over a nail, but it really is a bit wonky. I had a small accident with my cutting and the light blue fabric had a propensity to behave as it wished rather than as I wished.

Service Quilt Round Robin

One of my guild's, The Mary's River Quilt Guild's, on going projects is to make quilts for local people in need. One of the Service Committee's newer tactics, designed to increase the production of service quilts, is to do round robins.

I picked this one up to work on.



I am not sure how many people have worked on it to date, but I guess two.

I enjoy working on these round robins because I feel free to work with the design constraints of the piece without worrying about the aesthetic sensibilities of the owner.

The packet of fabrics they gave me for the next step seems to be mostly fairly dark blues, but I sort of think I should give it one more band, in a light fabric to tie the two parts together.

I have a sort of plan, which includes putting this on point. Over the next few weeks we will see if it works at all.
